Laurette D. Camire, 94, of Bath, ME. passed away on July 10, 2019 at the Plant Memorial Home, where she was a resident for the past 6 years. Born in Biddeford, ME, she was the eldest of nine children born to Lumina and Lester Thompson.  She attended local schools and graduated in a class of eleven from St. Andre’s High School. She then attended Rivier College (now Rivier University), in Nashua, N.H.  

In 1947, she married Paul E. Camire and made homes in Washington D.C., Biddeford, ME., Southington, CT. and Winter Haven, Fl. They had four children: Paulette Davis (Andrew) of Shirley, N.Y., Pauline Domrad of Milbridge, ME., Paula Cunningham of Bath, ME. and Paul R Camire (Gail) of Southington, CT. and seven grandchildren: Christopher Domrad (Paula), Joseph Domrad (Holly), Amy Tudor (Winslow), Jeffrey Cunningham (Máire), Jennifer Hunt (Jason), Elizabeth West (Frank) and Carolyn Camire (Dave) and six great grandchildren: Ellie and Katie Tudor, Martin and Tadhg Cunningham, and Sierra and Jacqueline Hunt.
